89 factory black paint?

I wanna repaint my front nose over this winter cuz of all the stone chips and minor scratches.

What color black was used on the 89 camaro's? Color code?

I hope it is still that color cuz its been painted once about 6 years ago. Maybe I should just take it to a body repair place and have them match it.

I painted everything but the top, saild panels, and the rear bumper on my car.....went to the paint shop, I got the blackest black possible....it matched fine.

But, the paint coade for your car is with the RPO codes (either in your console lid or in your rear hatch storage compartment). It's towards the bottom and will say "WA" I believe and have a few numbers that follow.

nice, i do like the blackest of the black paints. It is the sickness.

I hope the paint is not too black, that it is noticeable difference. Shouldnt be tho. thanks, forgot about the RPO codes. Could I just get a few cans of auto spray paint that closely matches or just get a auto shop to do it?
